A Coach at the NFL Combine Asked If Notre Dame's Tyler Eifert's Girlfriend is Real

Notre Dame's tight end Tyler Eifert seems like a pretty good catch. His 4.68-second 40-yard dash puts him as the top tight end prospect, and few can hate on his 35.5-inch vertical leap and 22 reps on the bench press. But he was also Manti Te'o's teammate, so one NFL coach had to double check something:

To kick things off, the team's head coach asked Eifert, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes," Eifert responded.

"Is she real?" the coach shot back.

Eifert – and everyone else – burst into laughter.

And while everybody was laughing, the coach was probably thinking in the back of his mind, "Wait, I was being serious."
